I have been using DVD2SVCD for a while now and just LOVE it. I am thinking about getting a DVD burner (probably a 2nd generation DVD+RW) in the next day or so. My question is this: Can I use DVD2SCVD (or something similar) to backup DVD movies to DVDR? I know I can follow the guides on this and several other sites to rip, then mess with the IFO files and all that stuff. What I'm wondering is if there is a way to automate it like DVD2SVCD does for SVCDs. Also am I correct in that I could use NERO to do a DVD to DVD copy of a DVD-5 disk and I would only need to worry about DVD-9 discs? Yes I know DVD-9 is the new standard, but was just wondering. Thanks for any responces crgnjul
Yes, you can use DVD2SVCD to create DVD to DVDR. This had been discussed in this link: Until now, I don't understand why most people would like to use complicated steps to create DVDR movies. DVD2SVCD is the answer. On your other question, you are right on Nero. But don't use Nero for your DVD+R projects. It will work great on +RW but not +R even on the latest version. Go with RecordMax instead.
i don't understand...dvd's come in 48khz audio...if you want to put them on dvdr why would you convert from 48 to 44.1 back to 48? why don't you just uncheck the downsample button so the audio stays at 48khz?
Why would you reconvert at all? Just use IFOEdit to cut out what you don't want from your ripped files, and then burn them. There's no reason to do a conversion when you're just copying a DVD to a DVD.

so far I have been able to use ifoedit to cut the dvds down below the 4.2G mark without any reencoding. I really don't want to do a 4 pass on something with 8500 bitrate. it would take forever. my most recent backup had no menu on the original, so the full movie with all the additional audios and subtitles all fit on 1 dvd, without any reencoding.
